Our View: With a judge ruling the league overstepped its bounds in Peterson's case, expect the same result for Hardy. He should have some interest on the free agency market, as we're pretty sure the Panthers are done with him.link to story

Our View: That Cincinnati just being Cincinnati. For years, they have taken chances on players through the draft and free agency that have serious character concerns. Hardy is coming off a season that he spent on the Commissioner's Exempt List after domestic violence allegations came up before the start of the 2014 season. All charges were dropped in that case as the alleged victim did not want to testify against Hardy. Now, he's looking to restart his career as one of the top pass-rushers in the game but a possible (further) suspension could keep his price tag lower. link to story
